The GNU nano is a superb Linux text editor. And you absolutely should use it. It’s not a fully-featured IDE nor does it claim to be.

I use nano for all my processional Linux administration and content creation. With a few tweaks you can turn nano into a capable editor that will meet your everyday needs.
